July 23, 2023 – LG2023 Day Twenty Three
- Brush: El Druida – 28mm SHD
- Razor: GEM Micromatic Open Comb
- Blade: GEM (5)
- Lather: Spearhead Shaving Company – Seaforth! Black Watch
- Post Shave: Spearhead Shaving Company – Seaforth! Black Watch
Sunday morning shaves are probably my top shaves of the week, no work, no rush to be anywhere, coffee and tunes to accompany my shave it’s just beautiful and Black Watch is a great addition this morning.
Black Watch gets a good few compliments in my house, a good reason is probably because my wife thinks most of my scents smell like dirt (Author’s Ridge & Fougère Gothique she detests) so when I where a nice fragrance like Black Watch she is always happy enough.
The Plum and Incense are what draw the most comments from this set, I get the Bergamot when I first lather and hopefully soon enough I cab get the matching frag in the den.
I paired the software with some of my more complimented Hardware.
The Brush was a custom handle from El Druida in Spain, it was designed around my family with a heartwood insert for each of my children, his logo insert represents my wife, and a two shillings coin from my later father’s birth year.
The Razor is my Gem MMOC, I had someone force a patina on this one and it’s come out beautiful, each time I post this in my SOTD people ask about it.

Prepare to be djudgey and turn your nose up at my poor lather
